Tesla founder Elon Musk is demonstrating progress on his Neuralink program to connect the human brain to computer chips by proving the viability of a similar procedure with pigs.

The billionaire entrepreneur, who describes the new device as a “Fitbit in your skull,” made a presentation Friday showing how the link has worked on a pig named Gertrude for the past two months.

Such devices — “about the size of a large coin” — will one day be implanted in humans in under an hour using a custom robot that is now under development, he said.

As Mashable reported on Friday, Musk’s end goal is to be able to solve certain human medical conditions like memory loss, seizures, hearing loss, extreme pain, blindness, paralysis, addiction, depression, insomnia, anxiety, strokes, and brain damage.
